Pregnancy

[Beckyxx]

Hi Everyone,

Hope you are all keeping safe and well. I’ve just found out I am pregnant in the very early stages but I am experiencing quite a lot of cramping, is this normal does anyone know?

Thanks

Cramping can be normal but ide check with gp surgery maybe get a telephone triage. X

Yeah I’ve rang them and should have a phone call this afternoon, thanks for your help xxx

I can’t help with answer, but congratulations 😀

I hope you get the cramping sorted soon.

Take care.

Thank you, I’m very shocked it happened but in a good way, but very excited!

Congratulations! Can I just ask how many weeks do you think you are, do they feel like normal cramps? x

[Beckyxx in reply to GreenwichGirl]

Thank you! Well according to the app I am using lol I am only 5 weeks, they do feel normal no more intense or sharp but keeping an eye on it xxx

Congratulations!!

I had a lot of cramping in early pregnancy, and some spotting. I called the midwife worried a few times and though everything was fine she always said it was best to call if worried

Thank you, spoke to the hospital I have elected today and they have said it all sounds normal but to monitor it xxx

Congratulations 🎉!

My most tell-tale signs of early pregnancy were the killer lower back, abdominal & inner thigh cramping, that reduced me to the stance of a folded deck chair (all 3 babies). This did improve & pregnancy was the least crampy time of my life - although I found I couldn't have any pressure at all on my lower abdomen, throughout pregnancy, or it set of tightenings. Above-bump trousers are the way to go 😅

All the best.

Thank you

Oh wow, really! The lower back and abdominal has been bad so far but hoping that will pass in the next few weeks, my step daughter sat on my tummy this morning and it was very uncomfortable lol. I will be investing in some of those trousers then! Xxx
